Pagan black metal band formed in 1991 in Wrocław, Poland.

Graveland’s style has changed from raw black metal on the early albums to a more epic sound which is inspired by Hammerheart-era Bathory. Lyrically, on the early works Rob Darken was inspired by Celtic beliefs, now he’s Wotanism-orientated and calls his music “epic pagan metal”.

ANCIENT GUARD is a new creation of Nightwolf, renown for pagan black metal vanguard RUNESPELL. As expected, his unmistakable mastery is all across Nightfall Enthroned, ANCIENT GUARD's first public work. A surprisingly vast mini-album at four songs in 31 minutes, Nightfall Enthroned is immersive to the extreme and almost soothing in its continually cresting swell of sumptuous black metal mysticism. While RUNESPELL's no-less-grandiose sound is oft given to bouts of bloodlust and battle rage, ANCIENT GUARD is pure magisterial march & might as can be expected of such a moniker. And Nighttwolf's knack for mesmerizing melodicism holds true here, as well, but if one could make distinctions in this regard, it's that Nightfall Enthroned swirls about to a spacious-yet-thick foundation that's equal parts stargazing wonder and weight-of-the-universe terror - an infinitely compelling canvas equally suited to adrift dreamers and austere realists alike. Followed by the acoustic lament "Eld," the synth-heavy epic "A Moonscape Abyss" says exactly everything it needs to about ANCIENT GUARD: awaken to Nightfall Enthroned!

“Embers of the Fallen” is the highly anticipated second full-length album from Belgian black metal band DOLCHSTOSS, known for their fierce dedication to the destruction and devastation of World War I.

Following “War is Eternal”, The music on this new offering is a powerful assault of fast tempo riffs, blasting drums and epic guitar leads which will sometimes lead you into a military march. The vocals are raw and aggressive, adding to the overall atmosphere of a Sturmpanzerwagen war machine crushing through the battlefield.

Tracks like “MG08”, “Ruins of Rowel” and “Forced March” will certainly delight fans of Marduk, Funeral Mist, and Kanonenfieber who will appreciate the ferocity and intensity of this album.

This CD version comes in a 3-part Digipack and includes a 12 pages booklet and a picture printed CD.

MARTHE is the solo project of Marzia, worldwide known for being Horror Vacui's guitar player and for drumming in Kontatto, Tuono, Campus Sterminii, Death From Above, Doxie and countless other bands. Between one practice and another with the aforementioned bands, she found the time to sit down by herself and record the tunes that became the "Sisters Of Darkness" demo tape, self-released a year ago and then repressed on tape by Caligari Records (USA). I'm personally not too much into metal, but the four songs on this demo blew my minds and I think they deserve to be released on vinyl too. Fans of Bathory's second wave will love this one so much that Marzia will be crowned as the Queen of Valkyrian Metal. Everything on this record has been written, performed and mixed by Marzia. Mastered by Jack Control at Enormous Door .
